Hi,

Since your final output is video, it's relatively easy to do this if you want both videos to be full screen (for maximum resolution) and are using simple cut transistions between your video segments. If you are cross fading between the videos then it would not work as well.

If you have a DVD burning program such as Ulead MovieFactory or Nero Vision then you should be able to import multiple videos that playback as a seamless video. If you are doing anything fancy you might consider purchasing a non-linear editing program such as Premiere Elements or one of the many others.

Also, you may not be aware that PicturesToExe Deluxe should be available later this year that will have an internal mpeg encoder/dvd burning engine. Igor mentioned it will be able to import AVI files, not sure if that means the ability to combine videos into one seamless video.

Tom

Thanks Tom, will give that a go and will also be patient and await PTE deluxe.

Dave,

Following on from Toms' suggestion you might consider using a few 'Flash Presentations' and incorporating these into your PTE Show ~ these as an alternative to AVI/Video Clips.

Since 'Macromedia/Flash Corporation' was acquired by Adobe Corporation last year some very serious developments have taken place with Flash and Dreamweaver and are just now coming into the Marketplace and are available for Amateur usage. I can only comment on the New Flash presentations that I have seen...they are superb !

One of our Members, Lin Evans has considerable experience with this technique ~ You would need to do a Forum Search for Lins' Posting contributions.

Hope this helps...
